Full Description


This book introduces quantum mechanics to readers with emphasis on its applications in optics, photonics, and engineering. Readers will learn the basics of quantum mechanics and how to apply them to their own disciplines. This book includes MATLAB code which allows for first-hand experience with the analytical and computational aspects of many concepts from solid state physics and condensed matter physics that are usually introduced in advanced texts but not to engineering students in the usual treatment in semiconductor physics and devices texts. Examples and homework problems are offered along the way,based on real devices and at the end of each chapter.It presents recent discoveries in optics and electromagnetics, including hybridization of bonds in organic molecules, which are becoming increasingly important for optics and engineering; a rigorous description of spontaneous emission and thermal radiation; and a final section of the book containing a treatment of quantum information processing, with physical realizations based on photonic qubits, allowing the reader to appreciate the current excitement over recent topics such as quantum cryptography, teleportation and quantum computation.
